In honor of Veterans Day this year on Friday, November 11, the Traer United Presbyterian Church congregation will be bringing back its Veterans’ meal and evening of honor and thanks on November 9.

Due to COVID-19 protocols, the program was suspended for the last two years, however, the church is excited to be able to honor current service members and their spouses, Veterans and their spouses, and widowed spouses of Veterans in this manner once again.

For many years, United Presbyterian Church has been serving a meal to local Veterans and providing a brief post-meal program with excellent speakers, music, videos, and fellowship. The program portion of the evening is free and open to the public and begins at 7:00 p.m. in the church sanctuary.

Service members and Veterans, please contact UPC at 319-478-2742 for meal reservations.
